I've also got an Athlon 64 but never noticed the problem. I'll check
again, but I reckon it may have something to do with your video card.
Or it has something to do with me running Delphi 2005 under VMWare (in
my case)- I haven't installed it outside the "sandbox" yet. ;-)

In case the video card has something to do with it... I have an ATI
Radeon 9800 Pro.

Cheers,
Kevin.
